MILLSAP — Darla Henry, Millsap High School principal, has been selected to represent the Texas Association of Secondary School Principals as a Region XI Outstanding Principal of the year.
TASSP recognizes outstanding principals and assistant principals from the twenty Region Education Service Centers in the state.
School administrators are nominated and chosen by their peers within their regions. Nominations are based upon exemplary performance and outstanding leadership.
“I was surprised,” Henry said. “But it is an honor. There are a lot of hard-working principals in this area. All principals work hard.”
As a Region XI winner, Henry is eligible to compete for the state title of the Texas Principal of the Year.
Henry has served as Millsap High School Principal since 2007. She is 1979 graduate of Millsap High School and received her bachelor’s degree from Texas Christian University in Fort Worth and her master’s in educational administration from Sul Ross State University in Alpine.
Prior to joining the administration at MHS, Henry worked as a teacher and coach for 14 years in Cisco.
She is quick to pass recognition on to her faculty and staff.
“A principal is only as good as the people they work with,” she said. “I have a great assistant principal, office staff and great teachers. They have all worked together to create a new culture here.”
Each of the region winners will be recognized during the Texas Heroes Awards Dinner held at the Hilton Downtown Austin Hotel Tuesday, June 8. Each will be presented with an award and recognized in a commemorative booklet entitled Texas Principals, Texas Heroes.
The TASSP Summer Workshop will be held June 9-10, at the Austin Convention Center.

However, Loftin said Thursday Fowler made the referenced statement to a room full of people at a fundraiser for Loftin and agreed to let Loftin’s campaign quote the sheriff. - Film director looking for local actors
